Re: [RR] *Any opinions on the Confederate Flag?

Michael,   You make a good point. I think you missed my point though. If what we do as Christians causes offense to our brother or sister Christians then the Bible tells us not to do it.   So if a Christian is flying a flag that causes offense to fellow Christians then their response should be to not fly it. See Paul's response to the Corinthians in I Cor. 8 & 10   As for those in the world I hope I am an offense to them. From the standpoint that Jesus shines through me.   IMHO   Bob Triphahn   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2001 1:34 PM Subject: Re: [RR] *Any opinions on the Confederate Flag?

It only makes a political statement. So lose the Ranger flag, lose the US flag - they OFFEND some people. ANYTHING can be used to make a political statement.  Maybe we need to ban rainbows from the sky because the homosexuals use them as one of their symbols... Michael
